STRYI Forged Deep Gouge Sweep #9 10mm: Deep U-Gouge for Steep Walls and Deep Hollowing
The STRYI Forged Sweep #9 is a specialized professional tool designed for carving with maximum depth and steep, vertical walls, where other gouges simply bottom out. As our deepest standard sweep, it is made for high-relief details and deep hollowing. It is the perfect choice for deep channels, sharp curves in organic sculpture, and textured backgrounds that need a clean vertical cut.
Why Professionals Choose the STRYI Sweep #9:
Slim Geometry for Deep Navigation Deep gouges with thick walls create friction and stall in the wood. The #9 solves this with a 3mm (0.12") thin-wall construction and a narrowed, tapered metal body, so the tool glides into deep recesses without bruising the surrounding wood and keeps you in full control in complex grain. The 0.4" (10mm) width suits the finest deep details, sharp accents in eyes or hair, and narrow, deep channels.
Premium U8 High-Carbon Steel Deep cuts in hardwood demand an edge that holds. Forged from U8 high-carbon tool steel and hardened to 61 HRC (Rockwell), this gouge keeps its edge in dense woods. It arrives sharpened and ready to peel shavings from oak, walnut, or cherry.
Ergonomic Oak Handle The 4.7" (120mm) handle is made from genuine oak and treated with natural linseed oil. A copper ferrule reinforces it, and the shape gives you a secure, comfortable grip during long carving sessions.
